"Amazing hotel with unique eccentric styling and cool, vibrant atmosphere especially on nights with dj and live music."
"Jurema terrace is a garden of eden, real jasmine falls from the sky and you feel like you're in a different country."
"The greenhouse terrace and central courtyard are absolute showstoppers, draped in hanging jasmine and passionflowers that infuse the space with a captivating fragrance."

“The adults-only policy sets a tone for a specific kind of guest, one interested in the hotel's artistic leanings and exotic decor, and perhaps seeking the Waeska Bar's ethnobotanical cocktail experience. I noted its location near the British Museum and Oxford Street, and imagine that after a day seeing the sights, the deep cashmere beds and on-site wellness sessions would be welcome. For those seeking a London stay that prioritizes the unique, this hotel presents a compelling option.”
